[comp.os.vms] information on VMSINSTALL

leichter@VENUS.YCC.YALE.EDU ("Jerry Leichter") (10/11/87)

	Are the "internals" of VMSINSTAL documented anywhere ?  (ie:  I want
	to write procedures that can use VMSINSTAL to install them.)  Any
	clues, hints, books, or pointers ?

There's a DEC manual, called something like "User's Guide To VMSINSTAL".  It's
not part of the regular VMS documentation set, but has to be ordered separately.
I don't have my documentation directory with me so I can't dig up the order
number for you, but it should be easy enough to find.

Specifically, it is called the "VAX/VMS Developer's Guide to VMSINSTAL" and the
DEC order number is AA-HB12A-TE. This info is from the VMS 4.4 version. I don't
know if there is a newer version. As Jerry said, this does not come in the VMS
doc set, you have to order it separately.
